The atmosphere was so incredible. You could really feel it. The crowd, the music, the cheers, the production. A live tournament has never felt as powerful (for me at least). I feel like both MLG and IPL need to step it up alot. Really looking forward to next DH. Loved it, just loved it.

Their setup is amazing, and for this year they even have SVT (the Swedish national television, free for all living in Sweden) with them on their side.
Great setup of the tournament, good coverage and great casters.

Huge love for the team behind it all!

Well, SVT isn't REALLY free since you have to pay for a TV license... even if you don't even use a TV, you still need to pay for that shit just for owning one.

It was incredible. I could feel the atmosphere even watching from home. GG, music, the winner going out, high fiving and being interviewed by an amazing Incontrol was absolutely sensational.

The casters were excellent. The production was excellent. I loved the schedule being shown after every game. Congratulations to Dreamhack, they really did deliver!

(Only thing that I could see missing is the pulse meter. It was just awesome seing someone's pulse peaking when a drop happens for example. Added a whole new layer of tension and sympathy for the gamers. Not a big deal but I really liked it)

For organizing all this good stuff, he deserves five minutes on his own stage, independent how good on camera he is. Same goes for Sundance, Carmac, David Ting etc.

I agree. I see no problem with organisers coming on stage at some point. the amount of work required to make these events happen is staggering.

I dont like it when CEO's come on stages and scream nonsense to hype up a crowd, it just doesn't work like that and it's always akward but i have to say that guy did a great job at the ceremony.

My problem with it was that it sounded like he was trying to quote The Gladiator with his "Are you entertained?".

Surely it should have been "Are you not entertained?" Right?

This Dreamhack was amazing. Best event in like 6 months, pretty easily. I especially love the pro players doing the interviews. Instead of muting the stream after the games, I'm really interested, and the contrast to something like IPL4 is big. It's a huge step up in professionalism when these interviewers are good at their job.

Best SC2 tournament I've seen so far. Looking forward to Dreamhack Summer. I'm not too fond of inControl as a caster, but I love him as a host. Apollo & Wolf were on par with Tastosis. Just a big thumbs up to everyone involved in Dreamhack. This is how it should be done!
